Anchored in the Community - A Fundraiser for The Mediation Center

The Mediation Center of the Coastal Empire – Savannah, Ga.’s leading organization dedicated to helping citizens proactively manage conflict – is delighted to host the 8th annual Anchored in the Community fundraiser.

Formerly known as the Velvet Gala, the Anchored in the Community event showcases The Mediation Center’s services, which provide strategic alternatives to litigation and increase access to justice throughout coastal Georgia. Funds raised at the annual fundraiser will support The Mediation Center’s youth programs, conflict resolution training opportunities, professional services and the Family Law Resource Center.

The evening’s festivities will begin with a cocktail reception at 5:30 p.m., followed by an awards ceremony at 6 p.m. Additional event highlights include delicious food stations, fun activities and raffle prizes.

Attendees will also have the opportunity to hear inspiring stories from award-winning volunteers who are advancing the mission of The Mediation Center and local students who participated in youth programs.
